About Leslie
I began my journey in art with a mission to raise awareness about sex trafficking and abuse, deeply moved by the plight of the vulnerable. With a strong background in humanitarian work, I have always been driven to make a difference. My passion for art is deeply rooted in my commitment to helping children and being the person I needed during my own tumultuous childhood. Art saved me, providing an outlet for self-expression and healing when I needed it most.
This personal experience inspired me to create an art program specifically for kids, giving them a safe space to express themselves through creativity. My art mission is selfless, focused entirely on being a voice for children who may not yet have the strength to speak out for themselves. My approach is two-fold: being the mentor I needed as a child and developing individualized programs tailored to each child’s unique needs.
I believe in understanding and addressing what each child requires, rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all solution. This dedication to personalized support ensures that every child can find solace and growth through art, just as I did. Through my work, I aim to capture the hearts and minds of my audience, offering a profound glimpse into my life’s mission.
My art is not just about creating beautiful pieces but about communicating a deeper, more impactful message. I invite you to join me in this journey, to support and understand the powerful role art can play in healing and empowering the next generation.
